IHK HC quashes PSA detention of 75-year-old AAC leader

Srinagar—The High Court has quashed the detention of 75-year-old Awami Action Committee (AAC) leader, Ghulam Nabi Zaki under draconian Public Safety Act (PSA), and ordered his immediate release.
A bench of Justice Muzaffar Hussain Attar ordered the release of Ghulam Nabi Zaki after hearing his counsel, N A Ronga. “The order of detention has been passed in breach of the mandate of law as declared by the court of India and High Court of the territory and is unconstitutional, illegal and bad in law,” Advocate Ronga pleaded.—KMS
